METHODOLOGY : Developmental and Experimental Type of Research AIM: The aim of this study is to improve content mastery of students on fundamental concepts of critical contents of Physics 8 through enhancing vocabulary, comprehension and interest.
DESIGN/METHODOLOGY/APPROACH: This study utilized experimental design to determine whether Adaptive – Progressive – Parallel Remediation Material provide better learning outcomes as compared with regular remediation material when used to and across the four categories of the respondents. FINDINGS: Data were statistically analyzed using dependent t – test , F – tes, post hoc test and Cohen D. The results showed that Adaptive – Progressive – Parallel Remediation Material significantly enhance better learning as compared with regular remediation material in Physics 8.
RESEARCH LIMITATIONS/IMPLICATIONS: This study focuses only on addressing the learning concerns of students and teachers on Critical Contents of Physics 8 identified by the DepEd CALABARZON on their survey across the region.
ORIGINALITY/VALUE: This study tested two facets of the remediation materials; its Adaptive – Parallel Approach and its Adaptive – Progressive – Approach. Adaptive – Parallel approach is where the remediation depends on the needs of the learners. Adaptive – Progressive - Parallel approach is where the remediation is ladderized. Once the students attain the mastery of the skills, the learners can proceed to the next activity enabling them to attain the required competencies. These facets were taken into consideration since time constraint is one of the factors that greatly affect the remediation of the teachers to students.
